Latest Update of Hotfix /Service Pack

Hi,
we are using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1600.1 (X64),in our data centre.
(Some of are in clustering & Mirroring & Log shipping ,Rest are standalone installations )
which will the best sp or latest cumulative update package.
? Can we go for -cumulative update package 13 (Build number: 10.50.4319.0)
Which one we should go with .
Hi,
You can safely apply SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=30437
If you read about cumulative updates its specifically mentioned by Microsoft that CU are intended to fix only problem for which they are created as solution if you are not facing this issue its recommended not to appy it. Service packs are tested more throughly
than cumulative updates.
I would not like you to go for CU13 if you are not facing issue fixed by that CU

Are admin and office clients always updated for each service pack.

Hi,
I am investigating upgrading our BPC version from 7.0 SP3. The question I have been asked by my business clients is "do the admin and office clients of BPC always get updated with each service pack?" I assume they do because the install guide indicates that you must update them to the same version as the server. Upgrading the client versions is always a concern here because since we don't allow the automatic update our plans have to include packaging an SMS deployment to over 500 workstations of several different configurations and locations.

Hi,
Yes, there are changes in the clients in every service pack. This is why it's important that the version of the client matches the version on the server. We've seen issues where there was a mismatch and no one could log in because of the changes in the client.
I would advise always updating the clients when adding a new service pack.

Jason

Rollup 5 update for Exchange service pack 3 issues

Hi,
I have exchange server 2010 Service pack 3 servers. Planning to install rollup 5 updated for exchange sp3. Anybody faces any issues after installing rollup 5 for exchange sp3...
Please share...

When we updated our servers to SP3, we had the choice between going with UR4 and UR5 (which had been released less than a week earlier). Due to possible issues with UR4 that were fixed in UR5, we went with UR5, and I am glad to say that we have had
no issues since the update was installed. We have two DAGs supporting 14,000 mailboxes, with >18 TB of live data, and are running smoothly.

How to Repair Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 once the update rollup or service pack is installed?

Hello,
I am going through the following Technet article:
Repair Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 (
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh699749(v=crm.6).aspx )
The repair option asks for the original CRM DVD media location. The problem is that how the repair procedure knows about the service packs or update rollup files location?
My concern is that the repair procedure replaced the update DLLs (or other files installed by CRM service pack installer) by the RTM files in the original setup DVD.
Is there any special consideration for repairing Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server 2013 once the Service Pack or Update Rollup is installed?
Thank you,

How to quickly recover from the broken Exchange Server VM due to Windows Update patch or Service Pack ?

Folks,
I'm planning to apply the Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 3 and also applying the Cumulative Update 7 along with Windows Update which haven't been done since the past two years (~100+ patches).
So in this case it I cannot afford to lose any of the Exchange Server due to the bad updates or broken server due to patches. At The moment all of the VMs currently running on VMware:
HT/CAS role Windows NLB:
PRODMAIL01-VM
PRODMAIL02-VM
Mailbox Server stand-alone non-DAG:
PRODMBX01-VM
PRODMBX02-VM
Domain Controllers:
PRODDC01
PRODDC02
My questions are:
1. When taking the VMware snapshot for easy roll-back, do I have to take the entire 2 sets of the domain controller as well?
2. Assuming I have done the Schema Update successfully and moving on to apply the SP3 to the HT/CAS server role, do I have to take both of the mailbox server VMs snapshot as well?
3. Can I disconnect the virtual NIC inside the guest OS to safely take snapshot before applying the patches or service pack ? or do I have to let the network to be always connected during the Service Pack or CU patch process ?
Any kind of suggestion for a better way to quickly roll back broken Exchange server due to patching would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
/* Server Support Specialist */

not only not recommended, not supported:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj619301(v=exchg.150).aspx
Some hypervisors include features for taking snapshots of virtual machines. Virtual machine snapshots capture the state of a virtual machine while it's running. This feature enables you to take multiple snapshots of a virtual machine and then revert the
virtual machine to any of the previous states by applying a snapshot to the virtual machine. However, virtual machine snapshots aren't application aware, and using them can have unintended and unexpected consequences for a server application that maintains
state data, such as Exchange. As a result, making virtual machine snapshots of an Exchange guest virtual machine isn't supported.
The only supported way to recover a lost Server is gracefully through Setup either Add/Remove programs or recoverserver option

Re:update windows 7 Service Pack 1 for x64 based system (KB976932)

Hi, I tried to updte automatically and mannually : windows 7 Service Pack 1 (KB976932) for windows 7 x64 based system. However error 404, happened, no solution suggested I can find online. Could someone can help me?

Hi,
From your error message, error 404 generally means whenever someone asks for a page that’s simply not
available on your site. The reason for this is that there may be a link on your site that was wrong or the page
might have been recently removed from the site. As there is no web page to display, the web server sends a
page that simply says "404 Page not found".
Did you get this error when you download or install process?
Please disable your firewall and antivirus temporarily and then download the package from the following address:
Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (KB976932)
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5842
Note: make sure choose the proper version (x64) for your system.

Compatibility between Exchange 2007 service packs

Hi all, I have 5 servers Exchange:
- 3 Servers CAS and HUB
- 2 Servers Mailbox server in Microsoft Failover Cluster (MSCS)
Domain Controllers are all
Windows Server 2003 SP2
The versions of Exchange 2007 SP1 servers are all:
8.1 Build 240.6
I have thought about installing SP3 and RU13 in all 5 servers for Exchange, but I'm going to install SP3 and RU13 on 2 servers CAS / HUB and the following week at the other CAS / HUB server.
Finally, the following week in the two Mailbox Servers.
Is there any problem if I miss 2 servers CAS / HUB with SP3 RU13 and the other CAS / HUB in SP1, this will only be for a few days?
Is there any problem if I leave the servidors Mailbox Servers in SP1 while CAS / HUB are in SP3 RU13, this will only be for a few days?
regards
Microsoft Certified IT Professional Server Administrator

Hi Yupikaiey.
Only thing you should be concerned is if you have CAS-CAS proxy or the Mailbox Cluster part.
Your current plan looks good. Just stay alert for any uncommon issues popping up, which would normally mean due to the difference.
If you upgrade your servers in this order, you may avoid potential service interruptions.
Details below:
Version Constrains are more of between roles of 2007-2010-2013 and not between same version SPs or RUs.
Exchange 2013 Server Role Architecture
The Past: Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010
Our goal was to make these server roles autonomous units. Unfortunately, that goal did not materialize in either Exchange 2007 or Exchange 2010. The server roles were tightly coupled along four key dimensions:
2.This also necessitated a tight versioning alignment – a down-level Hub Transport or Client Access shouldn’t communicate with a higher version Mailbox server; in some cases this was enforced (e.g., Exchange 2007 Hub Transport servers cannot deliver messages
to Exchange 2010 Mailbox servers), but in other cases they were not (e.g., an Exchange 2010 SP1 Client Access server can render data from an Exchange 2010 SP2 Mailbox server).
The versioning restriction also meant that you could not simply upgrade a single server role to take advantage of new functionality – you had to upgrade all of them.
The Present: Exchange Server 2013
If I upgrade the Mailbox server with a service pack or cumulative update, then for a given mailbox hosted on that server, all data rendering and content conversions for that mailbox will be local, thus removing version constraints and functionality issues
that arose in previous releases.
Exchange 2007 Servicing
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-in/library/dd421853(v=exchg.80).aspx
Deployment Order
Our test infrastructure guarantees that Exchange hotfixes work across multiple server roles. The order in which you apply the update rollup to the servers is not important except if you are deploying CAS-CAS proxying. Because the update rollups are not segmented
for different Exchange server roles or for specific file configurations, apply each update rollup package to all Exchange 2007 servers in your environment.
If you have multiple Active Directory sites, and if you deploy a Client Access server in the proxy sites that do not face the Internet, you must
apply the update rollup to the Internet-facing Client Access servers
and to the non-Internet-facing Client Access servers in the proxy site simultaneously. For other Exchange 2007 configurations, we recommend that you
apply the update rollup package to the Client Access servers before
you apply it to servers that are running other Exchange 2007 server roles, such as the Mailbox server role, the Hub Transport server role, and the Edge Transport server role.
Note:
Applying service packs and update rollups to clustered Mailbox servers requires specific planning and application steps. For more information about how to apply service packs to Exchange 2007 clustered Mailbox servers, see
Upgrading Clustered Mailbox Servers to Exchange 2007 SP1 or later. For more information about how to apply update rollups to Exchange 2007 clustered Mailbox servers, see
Applying Exchange 2007 Update Rollups to Clustered Mailbox Servers.
For Patching and compatibility between versions:
Determine the service pack level of Exchange.
Update rollups are service pack dependent. For example, an Update Rollup 5 package is available for Exchange 2007 and for Exchange 2007 Service Pack 1. To determine the service pack level of Exchange, examine the
ExchangeVersion property. For more information about how to view the
ExchangeVersion property and about the build number that is associated with each Exchange version, see
Exchange Server 2007: Platforms, Editions, and Versions.

Windows xp , which service pack is best ?

hi, can anyone help please ? my PC uses windows xp service pack 2, i have automatic updates enabled but i have not been prompted to update it to service pack 3. i have tried to look for a download to update to service pack 3, as i presume it is better than service pack 2. is this correct ? is it better ?
also, when i have found a link offering to allow me to get service pack 3, it is accompanied by dire warnings about setting up system restore points, suggestions that only programmers and experts should be doing it and advice about losing files, data and damaging the computer !! is it worth the (apparent) risk to get service pack 3, how risky is it?
thanks for all advice.

I've installed Firefox 3.6 running under Vista V6.0 Service Pack 2. Any attempt to do anything at all with it produces a Windows error message that Firefox has stopped working and it then closes Firefox. Is this a Vista issue?

The download and install processes seemed to work OK
The first Firefox window opened suggesting I update Adobe Flash Player. Clicking on download (with AV s/w either on or off made no diference) produced the Windows message that Firefox had stopped working.
By-passing the Adobe download suggestion and attempting to open up my home page (Google) produced the same result.
In fact any attempt to do anything, i.e. hitting the Enter key or left-clicking the mouse, produced the same result. Firefox freezes and WIndows then closes it.

Try to update Windows Vista Service Pack 2 using Windows Update, then select all high-priority or important updates, install them and restart the computer. Run Firefox. If it works fine then OK or if it crashes then there was no problem with the operating system.
The second method is restart your PC, after the manufacturer logo appears and before "Microsoft Corporation(C)" progress bar appears press F8 key. you will be presented with a menu with options-
Safe Mode
Safe Mode with Networking
Safe Mode with Command Prompt
etc. select "Safe Mode with Networking , and then login to your user account. Run Firefox again. If it works normally, then that probably means that your PC was infected prior to installing Firefox. Update your existing antivirus and run a full scan or acquire free Antivirus like Avast Free Antivirus etc.
If it still crashes, then try re-installing NOT Repairing Firefox AFTER INSTALLING AN UPDATED ANTIVIRUS .
OK the last way, better uninstall Firefox 3.6 and install Firefox 4 Beta 7. Firefox 4 Beta 7 runs 3 times faster than Firefox 3.6, with an overall improved interface.

Cannot install windows 7 service pack 1 on my HPE-400z desktop

I have an HP hpe-400z desktop pc. It is running windows 7 home premium operating system. Ever since Windows 7 SP1 came out, my pc has been trying to install it. Every time it tries to install, during the boot process the install fails and the system reverts back to original settings. I get the error message E_FAIL (0x80004005). I have tried letting the automatic updater install this sp1 and I have also downloaded it, running the update, and then the same thing happens. I have tried it without my security software running and get the same result. This has been going on for so long now that I do not even bother to watch my machine boot up,- I know it is going to boot twice due to the failure of installing sp1. Please help!

I would suggest you download the Win 7 Readiness Tool (see list of OS versions) located here
The System Update Readiness Tool can help fix problems that might prevent Windows updates and service packs from installing. For example, an update might not install if a damaged system file prevents the update from recognizing the version of Windows that's running on your computer.
If your computer is having problems installing an update or a service pack, download and install the tool, which runs automatically. Then, try installing the update or service pack again.

BOE 3.1 Service Pack 2 SDK changes

We are getting ready to install Service Pack 2 in our BOE 3.1 environment. In a test VM I have installed the SP and noticed that the dsws.jar files that are in the SDK directory (common\4.0\java\lib) are, in general, older than the dsws..jar file that are in webapps\dswsbobje\WEB-INF\lib directory. Does this mean that the SDK did not get updated when the service pack was installed? Can we continue to use the older files?

Hi Ted,
my post is about the same subject - BOE 3.1 SP2 SDK changes
>> PromptsUtil isn't deprecated for BusinessObjects Enterprise SDK.
PromptsUtil is marked as deprecated in 3.1 SP2 SDK. This is what I see in eclipse:
